Love the Elevation Changes
They just aerate the greens which blows. Otherwise, I was very happy with the course.

Aeration
Perfect day at a great course that I have not played in almost 10 years! Would have liked to see the website updated with the aeration that took place recently. Maybe that is why I got a good rate, but would have liked to know in advance to make a decision to play here or not. I regret that I have not played this course more frequently as it was perfect for my skill level.

Great Open and Clean Course
Played a solo lunch round today and the course is in good shape, especially the greens and fairway. Some muddy parts in the trees and cart path but we have had a ton of rain and there were no swamps, just mud. Staff was extremely friendly and they did not force me to pair or wait. The course is very hilly which added to the challenge since fairways are fairly straight and open on the front 9, definitely added to my distance on the downhill par 5. Par 3 were challenging and continue to be my nemesis. Overall I would highly recommend the course, clubhouse is nice and staff was very friendly today.
Liked - incorporated hills into the overall challenge, well placed green bunkers. Open, lost zero balls and limited fairway bunkers. Pace of play was about right, but the tees can get backed up on the par 3.
Could use improvement - Rough had a lot of missing grass and muddy. Cart path doubles back on itself in a few parts.

No structure or management
I used to live playing this course but over the past couple years the course has really gone downhill. There was a LOT of standing water and no aeration. The pace of play was absolutely pathetic, with younger players driving around, taking selfies, horsing around, only to take 10 minutes to hit from the tee. There was a ranger out but nothing was enforced. Only saw the beverage cart one time, and we had a tee time at 1:37pm. I am really disappointed in the management and really have no desire to come back.

Fun, challenging course.
Holy hills! This is a challenging course for those who don’t hit the balls straight. It’s tucked away & has a lot of charm. Pace of play was slow but we also played at 8:30am on Labor Day so that’s to be expected. I’ll be back with hopes of improving my score.
Thank you for your review, jayhills. We will pass along your positive experience to our team at Cary Country Club. We look forward to seeing you again soon and hopefully the pace and your score will be better!
Cary Country Club - Northwest Chicago Burb Hidden Gem w/ Good Greens & Unique Topography
The Good: Cary Country Club in the Northwest suburbs of Chicago doesn't look like much of a course when you pull into the parking lot, but I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the design, interesting topography and course conditions playing the front nine. A Par-37, the front has three visually interesting Par-5's and several drivable, "go-for-broke" Par-4's that make for a fun track. The greens, in particular, are in really good shape and are extremely slick. Decent clubhouse with full restaurant upstairs above the pro shop. At just around $50 w/ cart during peak season, one of the better values in McHenry county.
The Bad: Most of the fairways are in pretty good shape, but there were several "ground under repair" areas on the front nine that took away from the experience. No driving range or short game practice area. A fairly walkable for those in prime shape, can be a difficult trek for seniors considering the elevation changes.
The Verdict: Cary Country Club is a good public option in McHenry county, especially if you want to avoid the higher price tag of some of the upscale facilities. What is sorely lacks in amenities it makes up in character and good greens.
Best Hole: The Par-5 7th is one of the better holes I've played in the northwest burbs. A downhill drive must navigate fescue native areas that beautifully carve the hole. Uphill approach to a demanding green.
